this may apply to some of you [it certainly does me] if you use your truck in a business that has to cross state lines, beware. many states have enacted new laws that can leave you waiting for a cab at your friendly weigh station. we've been getting abused for years by the dot cops in different states for being considered "commercial" vehicles, even though we are a private not for hire company. it can be so complicated that even the dot officers arent sure what to do with us. go to the us regs for the national motor carriers safety admin. then decide how you should register your truck and trailor wghts. sorry for being so long winded, but this is my pet peave. this only applies to drivers that cross state lines,whether it is 1000 miles or 10. i would like to hear some feedback from hotshotters and our moderators also. this is very important to everyone that hauls for fun or a living.
